Botox in Cincinnati

Botox is a particular brand of neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes muscles to treat and prevent facial wrinkles and lines. “Botox” has become the most common name for this treatment, but technically, Botox is a brand. Botox uses botulinum toxin to block the release of acetylcholine, allowing your muscles to relax. At Transform MD, we offer three brands of effective neuromodulators that are structurally similar and work in essentially the same way: Botox, Jeuveau, and Dysport.

Botox, Jeuveau, and Dysport can reduce stress on the skin while promoting a strong sense of confidence! Using these formulas, we can treat aesthetic concerns such as:

• Crow’s Feet: Lines around the eyes that deepen when smiling or squinting.
• Elevens: Vertical lines or furrows that appear between the eyebrows due to repeated frowning or muscle tension.
• Forehead Wrinkles: Horizontal lines across the forehead caused by raising the eyebrows or aging.
• Frown Lines: Horizontal or vertical lines around the eyebrows that arise from frowning.
• Gummy Smile: Excessive gum visibility when smiling, often caused by hyperactive upper lip muscles.
• Chin Dimpling or Wrinkles: Irregular skin texture or small dimples on the chin caused by overactivity of the mentalis muscle.
• TMJ & Jaw Pain: Treating overactive jaw muscles reduces pain, tension, clenching, and spasms associated with temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
• Jawline Sagging: Addressing the jaw muscles lifts and tightens the jawline, improving facial definition.
• Large Masseters: Slimming overdeveloped masseter muscles softens the lower face and jawline for a more contoured appearance.

At Transform MD, we also offer advanced techniques using Botox in Cincinnati, including:

• Lip Flip: A lip flip uses Botox just above the upper lip to help the upper lip appear fuller
• Nefertiti Neck + Jawline Lift: Injections into the neck relax the pull of platysmal bands. This smooths out lines and wrinkles on the neck and sharpens the jawline.
• The Botox Facial: We can significantly improve the skin’s texture by combining Botox with microneedling in the same visit. During the microneedling process, the tiny needles will deliver Botox to the upper layers of skin, rather than to the deeper muscles below. The result is a noticeable improvement in your skin’s texture.
• Other combination treatments: We can use neuromodulators in combination with other treatments to resurface and brighten the skin, even out skin tone, and regenerate natural skin collagen to produce optimal overall results.

Typically, these treatments last for 3 to 5 months.

Botox is suitable for individuals who want to address existing facial wrinkles and prevent new wrinkles and lines from forming. When we meet with you to discuss your wellness and aesthetic goals, we’ll help you determine if Botox is right for you.

Botox can treat many types of facial wrinkles and lines. In particular, Botox is great for treating dynamic wrinkles, which appear as a result of repeated facial movements
One of the most recognizable examples is crow’s feet, also known as “laugh lines.” These lines around your eyes develop as a result of frequent movement, initiated by laughter, stress, and sadness.

Static wrinkles are deeper furrows that occur as we age and stop producing enough elastin and collagen to keep our skin taut. This facial volume loss is one of the most prominent features of skin aging and can lead to deeper static wrinkles that are present even without facial movement. While Botox can keep static wrinkles from deepening, other types of treatments like dermal fillers may treat them more effectively. Visit us for Botox in Cincinnati and we’ll design an integrative plan to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

At Transform MD, we’re skilled at giving you a natural look that’s balanced by our expertise and your natural and unique features. A Botox injection is a technique-sensitive treatment, meaning the results will depend upon the skill and technical ability of the practitioner, as well as careful consideration of a client’s desired outcomes. At Transform MD, our staff members have a high level of technical expertise and will carefully consider your desired aesthetic goals in administering your treatment.

To ensure your treatment for Botox in Cincinnati is effective, our providers recommend adhering to the following guidelines:

Things to Do:

• Tell us about your health and treatment history, including all medications and supplements you take. It’s important for us to know ahead of treatment, as some medications can increase the risk of post-treatment bruising.

Things to Avoid:

• Refrain from alcohol for 24 hours before treatment. Alcohol can increase the risk of post-treatment bruising.

Things to Do:

• Schedule your follow-up sessions based on your personalized treatment plan.
• Ask us about treatments that pair well with Botox. Fillers and microneedling are popular paired treatments that maximize your skin rejuvenation results.

Things to Avoid:

• Don’t lie flat for 4 hours after your treatment.
• Don’t get any facials for 24 hours after your treatment.
• Refrain from steaming or rubbing the area that was treated for at least 24 hours.

On its own, Botox works wonders to address facial lines and wrinkles. When Botox in Cincinnati is paired with other treatments at Transform MD, you can achieve enhanced results.

Fillers are a popular complementary treatment with Botox, as this combination of treatments allows you to target the two classifications of wrinkles: dynamic and static. While Botox relaxes your muscles to keep dynamic wrinkles from appearing, fillers smooth out the static lines. Together, these two treatments tackle your wrinkles, even the ones that are visible when your face is at rest. Fillers also improve the volume in the face which helps to decrease larger wrinkles.

We offer a wide range of facials that pair well with Botox in between your maintenance sessions. Our facials, including Hydrafacial and dermaplaning, promote ongoing radiant and youthful looking skin. We recommend you wait at least 2 days after Botox to receive a facial.

We might recommend microneedling before your first Botox session, or recommend this treatment in between maintenance appointments. Additionally, you can receive microneedling and Botox at the same time. We call this the “Botox facial.”
